About

Burj opens with a cool, sharp floral blast, quickly settling into a complex heart where sandalwood and warm spices dance with a subtle, almost vanillic sweetness. Incense and a hint of saffron twine through, creating a balanced woody-amber profile. Some pick up a vetiver-like earthiness, while others find the florals dominate, leading to a smooth, musky, and lightly smoky dry down.
